Signs of spring

The days get warmer and longer, and the indoor plants, at least, get ready for the new spring, green, happy growth everywhere. Mid-February I planted lacinato seeds, kuri squash seeds (scrapped from one of the kuri squash from last fall), and hot pepper seeds (which still defy spring) in icecube trays and miracle grow soil, and I keep them sunny, warm and moist. Most of the seeds have been repotted into larger containers and would be ready for the outdoors, if the outdoors would not be Maine. It will a few more months for that.
